One of the\u2026 no, it is definitively the best aspect about returning to the office, is the fact that I am able to get back to the gym, by virtue of the modest but adequate little gym inside my office\u2019s building.\u00a0 It\u2019s free for tenants, has showers and complimentary towels, and the best part is that it\u2019s hardly ever used.\u00a0 Since I\u2019ve been working out there, the maximum number of other people working out at the same time has me has never exceeded two people.<\/span><\/p>\n Knock on wood.<\/span><\/p>\n However, in spite of the fact that there aren\u2019t a lot of people who work out on the regular as I do, the gym doors, are still somewhat commonly opened and entered, by people who believe the gym restrooms are the best place to poop.\u00a0 Presumably they\u2019re thinking they\u2019re the most private, or least frequented, so that they can drop a deuce in perceived peace and cleanliness, but I don\u2019t think any of these bozos seem to understand that I\u2019ve already witnessed a number of people who use them that\u2019s high enough for me to not even consider them myself if the need arises.<\/span><\/p>\n For those who have never had the opportunity to be mired in Office Space<\/em> life, one notable behavior that most people don\u2019t like to talk about but exists because everyone poops, is that people have a tendency to try and be discreet and do their work-time pooping on the down-low.\u00a0 Either by coming in early, staying late, or in most cases with larger facilities, seeking out the bathrooms that are away from their daily peer groups, tucked away for privacy and\/or sanitary reasons, or all of the above.<\/span><\/p>\n A Where\u2019s Waldo<\/em> of sorts, of the \u201cbest\u201d bathrooms in the building.\u00a0 I have a bathroom in the building that I think is the best bathroom for my needs.\u00a0 It\u2019s hidden behind the mailroom and based on the fact that most every time I go into it, I\u2019m the one triggering the motion-sensing lights, which lets me know that nobody\u2019s been there for a while, or the toilets still have the tint of green water from the last time they were disinfected.<\/span><\/p>\n Point is, everyone who works in an office probably has in the back of their mind, the bathrooms they like to use when they want some privacy and piece of mind.\u00a0 And in my building, I\u2019ve noticed that quite a number of people seem to feel that the gym bathroom is that bathroom for them, but unbeknownst to them, they would be sorely mistaken.<\/span><\/p>\n The men\u2019s locker room has one toilet stall.\u00a0 One.\u00a0 Regardless of if I knew this wasn\u2019t a good bathroom or not, I personally don\u2019t like those odds, and wouldn\u2019t consider it.\u00a0 Presumably, the women\u2019s locker room has two, due to the lack of need for a urinal, and make no mistake, women come into the gym to poop as frequently as men do, but at least they can hedge their bets with two toilets presumably to pick from.<\/span><\/p>\n Regardless, much like NASA gathers data<\/a> on the all-relevant to space exploration conflicting between alligators versus sharks, solely based on the fact that it\u2019s an interesting behavioral \u00a0anomaly that occurs near their Florida facilities, I have decided to start collating data of the pooping habits of the people in my building, who pop into the gym solely to poop, thinking it\u2019s a nice and private bathroom for them to use.\u00a0 It\u2019ll be a fun little statistical gathering to see if any patterns or factoids emerge from it, and if anything all, just another topic I can dip into to write about in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n I also like to smugly meet the eyes of the people who come into the gym to poop; they know that I know what they\u2019re doing, because they always roll in with no bags or gear, and beeline for the locker rooms.\u00a0 If I weren\u2019t masked up, they would see the facetious smirk on my face when they\u2019re on their way out, because they think they\u2019re being clever and pooping where it\u2019s nice and safe, but based on the revolving door those poor toilets are, they might as well be crapping in a porta-potty during a marathon weekend.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" One of the\u2026 no, it is definitively the best aspect about returning to the office, is the fact that I am able to get back to the gym, by virtue of the modest but adequate little gym inside my office\u2019s building.\u00a0 It\u2019s free for tenants, has showers and complimentary towels, and the best part is … Continue reading Yes it\u2019s that time to talk about pooping again<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[98,45,109,37,83,182,190,49],"class_list":["post-48786","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-brog","tag-bathroom","tag-fail","tag-gym","tag-job","tag-observations","tag-tryharding","tag-white-people","tag-wtf"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48786","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=48786"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48786\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":48788,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48786\/revisions\/48788"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=48786"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=48786"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=48786"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
